The Lotus Elise is an ultra-lightweight sports car. It adheres to
company founder Colin Chapman's four basic automotive design
philosophies: It is lightweight for better performance; it is fun to
drive;
it provides a comfortable ride and exceptional handling; it is
innovative. The first new Lotus for America since the ill-fated Elan
debuted in 1990, the Elise first went on sale in Europe in 1996 becoming
the best-selling car in company history and creating waiting lists of up
to one year to buy what the European motoring press has labeled
the best handling car in the world.
Ever since, American Lotus fans have patiently awaited the car's
availability in the U.S. Weight saving is critical to the Lotus Elise's
performance. The first car in history to employ a bonded and extruded
aluminum chassis, the Lotus Elise's foundation weighs just 150 pounds.
All daily rentals include 125 miles / day. Weekly rentals include 700 miles / wk.
Additional Mileage is billed at $2.00 / mile.
